You young blokes don't know anything..... a Yamaha DT-1 did it all for me in 1971........ :crazy:


No DT1 Rod ---- but me on my DT2. Put a LOT of hard miles on this. I hung onto the motor for some reason - took it to the GAP last year where Carl's kids stuck it in Ric's Rat DT and actually rode it around for a while until it blew. :thumbup:

OK, thanks. I thought maybe you were using voice recognition to write the post and when you said crankshaft, it wrote quarterback, or something like that. :lol:
